Running SLED 11. When I used the Windows OS, there was a place I could view the environment variables such that I could open a window and put the path and values.

Now, for the SUSE Linux, where can I locate the environment variables?

Thanks

To see current environment variables run either of the following commands:

env  
set

To set your own users’ environment variables declare/export them in (for  
example) your ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile file (the ‘~’ means in your user’s  
home directory).

Good luck.
